Taisho era building

I visted to Shumokukan at lasy Saturday afternoon. There is a very unique building called Shumokukan. This building was built in Taisho era 1926. The porcelain and earthen ware company owner Tamesaburo Imoto built the western style house onto an old Samurai's house. There was a small tea house in the garden and served a tea at that day.
